From Douala to London, Nairobi to Lagos, The world is my map, I’ve seen it the most. But miles on the road, they come with a price, Loneliness shadows this wanderer’s life. We landed in Scotland, hearts heavy and torn, The chill of the air matched the ache we’d borne. But then came your warmth, like a sun breaking through, You opened your home, and we found a friend in you. Thanks for the memories, the laughter, the care, You wrapped us in love, a bond beyond compare. In your kindness, we found a place to belong, But now you’re gone, and the nights feel so long. Thanks for the memories, though they come with a tear, Friends like you are treasures, so rare, so dear. Your wealth never built walls, just bridges of grace, A palatial home, but your heart was the space. You made me feel valued, no matter the gap, Your kindness erased what the world holds back. Invited us in more times than I’d count, Each moment with you, a joy paramount. But life’s cruel hand took you far away, To Hertfordshire skies, where your heart now stays. Thanks for the memories, the laughter, the care, You wrapped us in love, a bond beyond compare. In your kindness, we found a place to belong, But now you’re gone, and the nights feel so long. Thanks for the memories, though they come with a tear, Friends like you are treasures, so rare, so dear. Loneliness visits like an unwelcome friend, The echoes of laughter, I wish wouldn’t end. Friends like you leave a mark on the soul, A hole in my heart where your light made me whole. Thanks for the memories, the warmth, the embrace, You gave us a home in a faraway place. Though distance divides, your love lingers near, In every soft memory, you’ll always be here. Thanks for the memories, I’ll cherish them all, The love of a friend is the greatest of all.
